About killing portals that have a lot of links: One thing to consider with mitigation from links versus mitigation from shields is that mods can pop off at any time during an attack, while links only drop when the portal's nearly dead. Therefore, on average, it will take more XMPs to take down a portal with a bunch of links than it would take to take down a portal with equivalent mitigation from only shields. So if you're planning to kill those other portals anyway, you might still be better off attacking them first. But I agree that if the only reason you were attacking them is to drop the links, you'd be better off just killing the link-heavy portal.
Nav tag to keep portal lock whilst recharging. Brilliant! I'm always gettin' something outta these videos Collin. Keep them comming plesse! ALL HAIL THE SHAPERS! 👽 🐸 👽 46&2
Hey Collin, I started playing about a month and a half ago on sad old little iphone 4S. I found your channel while looking for info on good ingress phones and am now the proud owner of an Asus Zenfone 2. Thanks for the info, its been a real game changer for me. I learn something new with every video you put out and I appreciate it. Now I've got my coworkers whole family playing and we're planning on being at the DC anomaly. Good times. Keep up the good work.
Smart use for Navigate. I'll have to make use of that tip.
Two "ProTips" I've discovered over the last 6 weeks of my actually playing.
1. You can reduce the amount of time it takes "Querying Linkability.." by reducing the number of unique keys in your inventory. When you query, I'm reasonably sure it goes through each key and checks "is there a link in the way?", so less keys == less checks. By that same logic, the longer away a key is the longer it takes to perform that check, so reducing the number of long-distance keys will help greatly as well.
Example: I live in north Idaho, so it makes sense to put all of the keys from Seattle in a capsule, until I can actually use them.
2. If you have multiple keys for a given portal, and you aren't linking anytime soon, put all of them EXCEPT for one in a capsule. The one left in your inventory acts as a "index" to know you can link to that portal, as well as allowing you to still recharge it. But when you're gathering more keys (such as a commuter portal), you only have one key to drop before you hack.
I'm still a total noob (level 7, hah), but I hope these help someone who isn't aware of them :)
Lizardboythelazy I actually meant to toss the first tip you mentioned in my future episodes notes but completely spaced. thanks for reminding me and for that you get the shout out :)
Lizardboythelazy Also, I think while it's going through querying all the keys, you don't actually have to wait for it to finish - you can click the key icon to see if the one you want is listed yet. You can even just click on the portal on the map during this time as well. (Useful for close portals.) It's usually just the long distance ones that make it take forever to fully complete.
You can also keep track of a portal in your attack notifications if you just scroll up a bit. If the scroll bar isn't at the very bottom, new notifications will only push the slider up without moving the screen. You can also use that portal as kind of a window into the general area to recharge other portals around it and hopefully determine what is actually being attacked and what is splash damage to the surrounding area based on which side side resonators are taking damage fastest.
J Anderson -Ghost0326 Great tip, I do this all the time!
Brand New ingression up including tips submitted by @DutchDijk and Eric Massey .
Learn How to save weapons, save cubes, deploy faster and never lose track of a portal you're charging
Collin Williams lg charge with a good external battery will help you to 48 hours.
I'm a RES agent, but fair game is fair game. The fastest way to level is to field in layers. Fan field whenever possible. I've learned this from other agents, but link out from an anchor to 8 other nearby portals, Then link each portal together, by linking the next portal to the furthest visible portal possible. Burn out all of the portals, using the MORE glyph prior to the glyph sequence (to obtain more keys -- this was updated from a recent event), after long pressing the HACK button. Also, use the COMPLEX glyph to speed up the glyph sequences. It may see difficult at first, but time is of the essence when creating your fields, so the less time hacking, the more time fielding. Trust me. Now, the next tips:
Example: Link Anchor (A) to portals 1, 2, all the way to 8.
Then, link portal 2 to portal 1 for your first field.
After, link portal 3 to portal 1, if it can. Then link to portal 2 from portal 3.
Link portal 4 back to portal 1, if it can, then to portal 2, if it can, then to portal 3.
Repeat this until you've reached your 8th portal.
If you have multiple keys to your (A) portal, then feel free to link additional nearby portals to it and further your fan field. In areas of densely-packed portals, your AP and badge stats will sky rocket. Fielding in contested areas means that you will accumulate points even faster, so don't get discouraged if your creation is suddenly attacked - combat is what you want to gain levels and badges.
It's all about having fun, even if moments get heated. Nothing like good swift competition!

Enl 14 ML33W here. For pro tip 5, navigate it a great way to grab a portal to recharge. What I normally so is scroll the comms alerts up a little (and leave the protected portal link showing). The comms screen won't automatically scroll down when new alerts come in. So wherever you left the alert, it'll stay there. When messing with players that like to take out my turf, I use this method to keep the one I need to recharge at the top of my comms for easiness.
I'll try the navigate trick soon. I'm curious to see how that might distract my late nite bikegressing to make a few k MU (while annoying smurfs with recharges).
Thanks for the tips, very helpfull!!!!
For the XM saving tip, 3 r7 are almost exactly what you need to fire a b8. That makes Theriot attack isles and focus on killing the weapons mods. Where possible just use ultra strikes. The portal only attacks if you hit a resonator.
Guidance78 btw
John Walker Love it. Noted and planned for a future episode with your agent name recorded
The long press recharge made this not as awesome, but if you want to get AP for some reason while recharging while you're just chilling (normally when I sit at a location with 6 portals to raise translator) there's a faster way to recharge than waiting for the button to become available to click again. If you are in a portal screen you can hit Recharge Resonators, Recharge All, then Done, repeat. Don't wait for anything to actually process when you Recharge - it will go through even if you hit done.
Another one that can be helpful if people around you like to use Quick Strikes is to campfire 1 resonator and then deploy the rest as normal. It's possible for people to QS right in the middle of a portal and only hit mods - which only alerts the portal owner, since no resonator was hit (which is also useful to do if you can pull it off when on the offense).
I'll see it tonight! Love your videos! 👍
Anders Hagström Thanks Anders. I keep telling my girlfriend how awesome and supportive the Ingress community is as a whole but especially of the series and it's guys like you that prove it :)
Collin Williams I started about six weeks ago as a Smurf "Haggurt". I'll be Level 8 today. I'm at 1185000ap now. My daughter, 11 years old started three weeks ago "LillHaggurt" (Little Haggurt). She is L6 now. And my eight year old daughter started two days ago. "NinjaHaggurt" :) Me and Ninja are going out right now on bicycles for fielding and leveling. This is really a social game. I maneged to find out who two frogs were that is in my area sometimes and tare it all down. Actually friends of mine from my youth. We went to the same school in the eigties and nineties and we are the exact same age. And I met some great smurfs aswell that helps me in this game! Keep up the good work and post more videos!!
You've never heard of a Narwhal? Haha. Nice tips! I just hit Lvl 3 the other day, so I'm still very new. Can't wait till I can actually kill enemy portals! That looks like the most fun thing in this game to me.
I love your videos!
So, you mentioned one exception for the "hit the strongest first" tip, and that was if there were two AXAs on something, you should just hit the nodes?
Did you mean the portal with the links, or do shields on connected portals mitigate damage as well?
Great videos btw, best ingress youtuber hands down!
Lizardboythelazy shields don't provide mitigation to portals they are linked to. onyl the portal they are on. However there is a maximum damage mitigation that a portal can recieve of 95% 2 AXA or VR shields hit that maximum mitigation all by themselves, so in that case the link on the portal would not provide any additional mitigation. Therefore it wouldn't matter as much if you killed the "hub" before you killed the auxiliary portal (until the shields on the auxiliary portal were knocked off)
Collin Williams That makes sense now, thanks!
Thanks again for the tips and tricks! Question? You mention that a portal can have a maximum shielding... What is the max mitigation a portal can have with links and shield. I don't want to be wasting shields 😛
abi Rich maximum is 95% total combined between links and shields.
link to mitigation is as follows.
16 mitigation28 mitigation37 mitigation43 mitigation48 mitigation51 mitigation53 mitigation55 mitigation
So 8 links and a rare shield gives the max 95% mitigation
2 tips:
1. If someone is recharging the portal and you can't fire fast enough, put your phone on airplane mode, fire as many XMPs as needed, take phone off airplane mode and they'll all fire at once.
2. When recycling, to be fast press confirm then you can hit cancel, and skip the animation.
If you decide to use one, please credit me using my username BrunoTheTiny
Thanks Bruno, will pass this on to the noobs
bruno edwards I'll have to test the airplane mode one on a few different phones since it didn't work on my droid turbo ("unable to fire" and "weapon does not exist" errors) but I forgot the recycle skip so that'll be headed in a future Protips (likely 6 or 7) for sure.
Collin Williams works on iPhone anyway, but not all tips (eg. Pressing the back button after linking) can work on everything.
Airplane stacking is considered by some to not be fair play as you're using an technique to game the system
That sounds awesome. You know any other ways to cheat?
need to figure out how to use Single finger manipulation of the scanner. it isnt documented, but sometimes when im playing i can spin my view with one finger and zoom in and out. but i dont know how it got into that mode!
Hey Colliin Williams help those who walk to certain portals without car i feel pain when i go to certain portals.
I've found that the intel map loads quicker after I changed my bookmark to a link to a local portal.
As an example:
From: www.ingress.com/intel
To: www.ingress.com/intel?ll=40.623853,-73.663641&z=15&pll=40.623939,-73.639336
(Agent name Tek1)
***** I'm going to have to check that out on a few different devices for sure. that could be a great time saver for stock Intel
Um i don't know if its a well known tip or not but if your trying to get more AP, as a low level player recharge the resonators one at a time each one will give ten AP per resonator instead of ten for all of them at once. That is if you have the time.
JCDisme1 That one does work (to a point) since the recharge button still runs the same AP per recharge a just splits it among the reso's it increases ap only on the resos where hitting recharge once still leaves it needing a partial recharge. I'd say on the average it only returns 10-50 more AP per portal, but I'll toss it in as a side tip on a future episode. Might be useful to those that have far less portals that they can charge, or can't leave home as much.
I tried using that strategy where you just keep deploying on a portal that's under attack.
Turns out waiting for someone to shoot it down to get the AP is not a good option since Ingress doesn't always instantly refresh the status of the portals I'm looking at so by the time I see the resonator got destroyed, the portal already changed colours and got modded by the enemy.
+Phase9LetsPlay That's partly due to cell/server lag, . Often if you leave the portal then go back in it will have refreshed the portal info then you can deploy. Also if you successfully deploy on a open slot then when it finishes the deploy it will refresh the current state of the portal.
DutchDi-j-k xDDD it's more like "dike," that's also what it means
I hope one day to open COMM without crashing my phone or having to wait 10+ minutes (T_T)
Dave Underhill What phone are you on? and have you tried sliding the notifications to just the 5K range using the arrow at the top of comms?
Collin Williams Unfortunately, I'm one of those with ... [whisper] an iPhone. (>人
You poor poorboy. I'm so sorry to hear about your i-infection. We have an episode on bst phones for ingress you can check out to hopefully fix the issue
You can deploy 26 resonators on a portal
If you fill it with lvl l1 resos first and then l2 and so on
Will help you in getting the "builder" batch
Helpfull for agents who have less portals in their area
Agent name - aceluffysabo
Lincoln coutto I'll have to double check this one out since our previous testing (months ago) showed you only got a deploy counted if it gave you AP which didn't occur on upgrading your own resonators. If they've switched that it would be awesome
Collin Williams your right ..you don't get ap for upgrading your own reso
But I think the deployment still counts
Agent name changed - llOnePiecell
Lincoln coutto I finally checked and you're correct. I guess they changed the stats since it didn't last year. I'll make sure to note you with the shout out on the tip
You aren't supposed to spell Narwhal with an e
in Dutch, 'ij' is pronounced 'ee'. In American phonics, its pronounced "Dutch Deek"
Jason Houting me am no speek good outside Murica language
'Merca!
Jason Houting Deek?? xD It's more like "dike"
We zeggen toch ook niet "diek"
MC_Mac_MC op ut boer'n land wel
ardawen Dus zodra we een buitenlander onze taal leren leren we hem een dialect..? Okeej
he is talking to fast ;P
***** He is just trying to put as much information in as possible. If he would talk slower, the episode would be much longer ;)
